Sun doesn't have a monopoly on quality software. Nor, does it have a better "8-ball" when it comes to making design decisions or trade-offs. The only place Sun has a significant advantage (IMHO) is our passion for making sure we set expectations for the stability of the interfaces of our software offerings. I think several people are broadening this single differentiator to include many other attributes of the software. Better? - jek3
